The Heart of Men

It has been broken 
It has been step on 
Even held in the hand by another 
It has been take care 
Kick to the side 
And place on a Mantel for the world to see 
Even dealing with the fortress of cover emotions 
Lies a person at with the strength of Atlas
And the mind of a super computer   
A heart as genuine as gold 
Hard to contain as the wind that blows by her face
It has tame the hardest of woman
It has create rhythmic music and poems
That has define the world today 
All because of the heart of this man will 
A will created by Pain, Stress, Anger, and Happiness
The driving force behind every man
That hasn’t and will not give up on the thing that has his heart
